I'm using PHP to redirect a page back to the previous page with the following:

header("Location: {$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']}");

This set of pages will only be used by internal users, so I'm not terribly concerned about the fact that the referer will not always be available.

The problem I'm running in to is that if the referer looks like http://subdomain.domain.com/test.php?id=13, the redirect ends up going to http://subdomain.domain.com/.domain.com/test.php?id=13. Notice the additional .domain.com/ in the url.

I've tested by hardcoding the value, and it causes the problem as well. phpMyAdmin seems to suffer the same issue, but only on this particular server.

If this is not an SO question, please move accordingly.
